Remotely operated isolation valve
A shifting tool for use in a wellbore includes a tubular housing having a bore formed therethrough; a tubular mandrel disposed in the housing and longitudinally movable relative thereto; and an engagement member moveable relative to the housing between an extended position, a released position, and a retracted position, wherein: the engagement member is movable from the retracted position to the extended position in response to movement of the mandrel relative to the housing, and the engagement member is further movable from the extended position to the released position in response to movement of the mandrel relative to the housing.
1. A power sub for use in a wellbore, comprising:
a tubular housing having a bore formed therethrough;
a tubular mandrel disposed in the housing, movable relative thereto, and having a profile for receiving a driver of a shifting tool;
a first piston operably coupled to the mandrel and operable to pump hydraulic fluid to an outlet of the housing; and
a release operable to receive a release of the shifting tool after operation of the power sub, thereby depressurizing the shifting tool.
2. The power sub of claim 1 , wherein:
the mandrel is rotatable relative to the housing, and
rotation of the mandrel moves the first piston longitudinally relative thereto.
3. The power sub of claim 2 , wherein the release comprises:
a sleeve disposed between the mandrel and the housing, connected to the mandrel by a cam, and having a profile;
a second piston in fluid communication with an inlet of the housing and operable to move the sleeve longitudinally relative to the mandrel from a first position to a second position, wherein the profile radially increases when the sleeve moves from the first position to the second position.
4. The power sub of claim 2 , wherein the rotation of the mandrel reciprocates the first piston longitudinally relative thereto, thereby pumping hydraulic fluid to an outlet of the housing.
5. The power sub of claim 4 , wherein the first piston is disposed in a pump, the first piston longitudinally reciprocates between a first position and a second position, and the first piston is operably coupled to the mandrel via a bearing.
6. The power sub of claim 5 , wherein the pump includes a plurality of pistons operatively coupled to the mandrel via respective bearings.
7. The power sub of claim 6 , wherein the first piston is configured to drive hydraulic fluid into a pressure chamber when the first piston moves toward the second position.
8. The power sub of claim 7 , wherein the pressure chamber is in fluid communication with an isolation valve.
9. The power sub of claim 5 , wherein the first piston is configured to draw hydraulic fluid from a reservoir when the first piston moves toward the first position.
10. The power sub of claim 1 , further comprising a control valve disposed in the housing.
11. The power sub of claim 10 , wherein the control valve is configured to block a first flow path in the housing in a first position and configured to block a second flow path in a second position.
